I am Sir Carlton, cousin of ye old Fresh Prince of Bel Air. I believe in all my heart that King John is innocent of these outrageous claims against him. While our dear king may have made some people upset with his actions, he was only doing what he felt was in the best interest of England. Some would call these silly wars but as a knight, I know that the crusading and fighting we did was to expand England's borders bringing wealth and riches to all English people. During the trial I expect to see both sides passionately fighting for what they believe. In the end the king will be justified in his actions and found NOT GUILTY by a jury of his peers. For my prop, I am going to carry a small bag with some "coins" in it. It represents the taxes that I collect from those that live on my land.
